Raimbault Fils 2024 'Les Gravons' Sancerre, France
Sancerre is on fire recently and becoming more and more scarce - we bring you one of the best small production gems we've found.
40 year old vines from various parcels in the village of Sury en Vaux. Limestone, clay-limestone. Natural yeast fermentation in tank with thermoregulation. 8-12 months on lees in tank.
Tasting Notes: Aromas of lemon zest, grapefruit, and green apple lead the nose, accompanied by notes of white flowers and fresh herbs. On the palate, the wine shows a light to medium body with lively acidity and a clear mineral edge. Flavors of citrus, pear, and gooseberry develop through the mid-palate, supported by subtle herbal tones typical of Loire Sauvignon Blanc. The finish is clean and refreshing, leaving impressions of citrus peel and light flinty minerality.
About the Winery: Domaine Raimbault et Fils is a family winery based in the village of Verdigny, located in the eastern Loire Valley near the town of Sancerre. The Raimbault family has cultivated vineyards in this part of the Loire for several generations, maintaining a relatively small estate devoted primarily to Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir. Like many producers in the region, the family focuses on vineyard parcels situated on the slopes surrounding the Sancerre hill, where limestone and flint soils play an important role in shaping the wines.
The estate emphasizes straightforward winemaking methods designed to preserve varietal expression and the character of the local terroir. Grapes are harvested carefully and fermented in temperature-controlled tanks to maintain freshness and aromatic clarity. The resulting wines aim to express the classic profile of Sancerre—bright acidity, citrus and orchard fruit, and subtle mineral character—while remaining accessible and suited to early drinking.
